Brokeback Mountain: Our Community's Common Bond > Brokeback Mountain Open Forum
Kudos to Bravo for doing as they said with rpt. BBM !!!
tforster:
Surely, if the film had been broadcast on Logo it would not have been censored. What gets me is that I've seen much more graphic sex scenes on Nip/Tuck on FX, which is similar to Bravo... Nip/Tuck even had a very revealing man on man anal sex scene with lots of thrusting and grunts and butt shots and full on lighting... I was quite shocked when I saw it... but my shock soon turned to admiration for the balls the producers of Nip/Tuck have (and the FX executives, too). ;)
Artiste:
Right tforster !
So maybe if the BM movie would have had Ennis having four wives minimum same time, then it would nOT have been censored ?

Remember at the SAG awards how Sean Hayes sneered at it? so for them it is not included in their lists of 'great gay movies'. They are thinking of 'Capote' and such....

Yes I remember some of that by some of the gay community. But GLAAD was one of the biggest supporters of Brokeback back in them earlier days. And they still are.

Wishful thinking, is it that we, gay men and gay ladies and others think that the BM movie is pro-gay ?
Then ? To-day ? Tomorrow ?
It seems that BRAVO censored it's gay parts, like cutting its balls ?

Artiste, nearly everyone here is outraged by it. Advise you go back and re-read the thread! :)
There's not much we can do about it. Except bitch. Which is what we're doing. You can also send Bravo a nasty email. I just did. It probably won't do any good, but it sure did feel good! LOL
